Estado nutricional y asistencia alimentaria en escolares urbanos de Tucumán, Argentina.

Abstract

Fundamentos: Este trabajo se propone avanzar en el conocimiento de la situación nutricional infantil de Rio Chico, Tucumán, Argentina. Los objetivos fueron analizar el estado nutricional de la población escolar e identificar factores asociados tales como la edad, el sexo, el nivel socioeconómico (NSE) y la asistencia alimentaria escolar (AAE). Asimismo, interesó valorar el perfil calórico de la asistencia alimentaria brindada en las instituciones educativas públicas. Métodos: El estudio fue cuantitativo y transverso e incluyó 1605 niños y niñas. Se calcularon prevalencias de estado nutricional adecuado, desnutrición (crónica y aguda), sobrepeso, obesidad y obesidad abdominal. Mediante pruebas de regresión logística se determinaron factores asociados a la malnutrición (edad, sexo, NSE y AAE). Se analizó el perfil calórico y el grado de adecuación de la AAE (aporte energético, macronutrientes, micronutrientes y fibra alimentaria).Resultados y conclusiones: Se evidenció un perfil de transición nutricional con predominancia de sobrepeso y obesidad en relación a la desnutrición. La posibilidad de presentar obesidad y obesidad abdominal fue mayor en las mujeres, en los escolares de NSE medio y en aquellos que no percibían AAE. El perfil calórico de la AAE evidenció desbalance en el aporte de los macronutrientes.

Background: The purpose of this study was to provide new evidence of the nutritional situation of children from Rio Chico, Tucuman, Argentina. The objectives were to analyze the nutritional status of urban schoolchildren and identify associated factors such as age, sex, socioeconomic status (SES) and school food assistance (SFA). It also interested assess the energy profile of SFA provided in public institutions. Methods: The study was quantitative and cross-sectional and included 1605 boys and girls aged 6 to 12. Prevalence of adequate nutritional status, undernutrition, overweight, obesity and abdominal obesity were calculated. Using logistic regression tests, factors associated with malnutrition (age, sex, SES and SFA) were determined. The caloric profile and the percentage of adequacy of the SFA were analyzed. Results: The possibility of presenting obesity and abdominal obesity was higher in women, in schoolchildren with a medium SES and in those who did not receive SFA. The caloric profile of the SFA showed an imbalance in macronutrients contributions. Conclusions: A nutritional transition profile with a predominance of overweight and obesity in relation to undernutrition was evidenced.
